In this book, Aaron L. Miller, a socio-cultural anthropologist of education and sports with long standing ties to Japan, pulls back the veil of this controversy in <em>Discourses of Discipline: An Anthropology of Corporal Punishment in Japan&#8217;s Schools and Sports<\/em>. Miller documents in rich detail the various viewpoints regarding this practice, by some accounts an effective tool of proper guidance, by others, a violent violation of human rights.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0For more information on the book, you can download the front and back cover by clicking where it says &#8220;Download File&#8221; above.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in purchasing the book, there are several\u00a0ways to do so.<\/p>\n<p>1) Download\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.aaronlmiller.com\/alm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/order_individuals.pdf\">this order form<\/a>, fill it out, and mail or email it to the Institute of East Asian Studies, UC Berkeley, at the address listed in the bottom right-hand corner of the page.<\/p>\n<p>2) Purchase the book\u00a0via\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Discourses-Discipline-Anthropology-Corporal-Punishment\/dp\/1557291055\/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_3?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1375119331&amp;sr=8-3-fkmr1&amp;keywords=discourses+of+discipline+an+anthropology+of+corporal+punishment+in+japan\u2019s+schools+and+sports\">www.amazon.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>3) Buy it as an E-book <a href=\"http:\/\/ieas.directfrompublisher.com\/catalog\/book\/discourses-discipline\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>THANK YOU!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Synopsis The corporal punishment of youth is a controversial practice across all human societies, but perhaps nowhere has this controversy been overlooked more than in Japan, a nation whose complexities have all too often been hidden from western observers.
